Default Sun Visors

I am not a tall person (5'10) but on the recommendation of another forum member I removed my sun visors. Man oh Man! What a difference to the interior of the car. It improved outward visibility a tremendous amount. You have to try this to believe it. The removal process its self was very simple and can be found here: https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti....php?TopicID=1

Agree! Great mod.

Still need to re-wrap that roof piece with vinyl to fix the holes tho and cover those round joints. Not noticeable tho.

That was about my first mod on my 2001, it really opens up the front view, I calculated 20% increase in my viewing area! For those times when I am driving straight into a setting sun, I just have a baseball cap handy.
